In the shop, Mrs. Yu, like a child seeing a long-lost relative, cried and fell into Ling Zinan's arms, venting all the grievances and resentments that had been suppressed in her heart for many years.
After she cried for a while, she also relaxed her mood. Looking at Ling Zinan, whose clothes were soaked by her crying, she became embarrassed again and wiped them with a handkerchief.
Ling Zinan smiled and held her hand, then pointed to the sample clothes on the hanger: "Here, take this off and try it on me. You can change it and wash it before returning it to me."
"Yes, grandma." Mrs. Yu immediately took the clothes and, with the help of Yun Shi and Yun Lan, helped her go to the inner room to change clothes and then walked out.
After sitting down again and drinking the fresh fruit tea that Yunshi made for them, Yu's mood had completely recovered.
She grinned at the three of them in embarrassment and said: "I was originally very happy today, but I didn't expect that it would be ruined by this family of ignorant people. I don't know if the princess, the princess, and the marquis' wife would..."
"No, who's family doesn't have a few rough relatives? Those people don't know etiquette and have no rules. What does it have to do with us? Sister-in-law, don't worry about it. After all, the emperor's aunt and the princess are also sensible people. Otherwise, they wouldn't send anyone.
You invited me and my grandmother over, so don’t think too much." Su Han patted the back of her hand and said.
Tears poured into Yu's eyes again, she pursed her lips in grievance and said: "I really wish they never existed, it's so... so embarrassing..."
Ling Zinan held her hand again and rubbed it gently: "What's there to be ashamed of? As Han'er said, there are not many bad relatives in any family, but what they said today means what you said before leaving the cabinet.
It must have been a very hard life.”
While Yu nodded aggrievedly, tears came out of her eyes again, and she sobbed softly: "Grandma, I'm not afraid of suffering, I'm just aggrieved for my mother. You know, my maternal ancestor's family was also very famous in Jiangnan.
The owner of the embroidery workshop had a large fortune, but because there were no men in the family, he was finally deceived by Yu Linghuai, causing the entire grandfather's family to die tragically. As a result, his mother's condition worsened and she passed away, alone.
I was left alone. My mother told me before she died that I must leave this prison. I don’t need to seek justice for my grandfather and her. I just hope that I can live the rest of my life in peace. It’s not me who is unfilial, it’s them.
It’s gone too far.”
Although Ling Zinan had long heard Su Han mention the original situation of the Yu family to her, she did not expect that it was like this. She felt even more sorry for the child in front of her and why all of them were so miserable.
Su Han also felt sorry for her. He put his arms around her shoulders and patted her gently to comfort her, but he couldn't find any words to comfort her.
Mrs. Yu softly sobbed twice and then said: "It's because of my incompetence. I really didn't want to take revenge on them. I just thought about not seeing them again for the rest of my life. I didn't expect that this time because of Zheng Xishi's incident, I am also to blame."
If there is something troublesome, you shouldn't notify them, and you won't cause this trouble..."
"Sister-in-law, what you did is not wrong. No one can choose their own origin, let alone the parents who gave birth to you. They were ruthless and unjust to you mother and daughter, but you repaid kindness with hatred. This is also a reflection of your noble character.
It's their bad character and it has nothing to do with you, just have a clear conscience." Su Han comforted her.
Mrs. Yu looked at her movedly: "But, this has caused you more trouble. I really feel sorry for you."
"What's the trouble? Have you forgotten my slogan? I specialize in dealing with all kinds of dissatisfaction, quarrels and fights. So far, I have never lost. Hehe, I want to find someone to quarrel with.
Now that there is not much left, they come to my door to relieve my anger, why not do it..." Su Han said with a smile.
Ling Zinan held Yu's hand and asked, "Son, tell your grandmother the truth. Where is your mother's family from in Jiangnan? What was the name of the store she originally opened?"
Mrs. Yu wiped away the tears on her face and said, "My mother's surname is Ning. My maternal grandfather originally lived in Fangxiu City in Suyunzhou, and her shop was called Su Jinxiu Fang."
Ling Zinan said "Oh" and nodded: "So, Ning Taiyuan is your grandfather!"
Mrs. Yu nodded vigorously: "That's right, my grandmother knew my grandfather."
Ling Zinan smiled and nodded again: "It is true that we know each other, but the person we know most is probably your aunt Ning Banruo. She was a very famous and talented woman back then. Unfortunately, she did not live long and was only over thirty years old.
, had already died of illness, and when I learned the news, she had already been buried, which was a pity."
"I have also heard from my mother that my aunt's embroidery skills are second to none in the world, and the Ning family has been the first choice for embroidery for the royal family for ten consecutive years. However, since my aunt passed away, the quality of the Ning family's embroidery has not been as good as before.
Well, my mother has been taught by my aunt since she was a child, and although her embroidery skills are outstanding, she is still far behind compared with her aunt." Mrs. Yu said to her.
Ling Zinan frowned slightly and asked: "If what I heard is correct, you should have an uncle originally. How come there is no male in the family?"
Yu sighed softly and shook her head: "I heard from my mother that when she was thirteen years old, her uncle encountered a flood and died accidentally when she was out delivering goods."
"I see, but I still don't understand. As the legitimate daughter of the Ning family, how could your mother marry the Yu family as a concubine?" Ling Zinan asked.
Yu's eyes reappeared with hatred: "My mother was deceived by Yu Linghuai. My mother said that when she met Yu Linghuai and Zheng Yuqing, they both claimed that they were unmarried, and
At that time, they tried their best to show their sincerity in seeking cooperation with the Ning family. Later, after Zheng Yuqing received the letter from home, he hurriedly returned, leaving Yu Linghuai behind to discuss business with his grandfather. He was very good at coaxing people, and her mother was not familiar with it at the time.
Shi Shi was moved by him and fell in love with him."
"Did you find out about it after we got married?" Lan Yang asked sadly with a wrinkled face.
Mrs. Yu shook her head and nodded and said: "That's right. At that time, my mother got married in a very prosperous way. She thought she was looking for a son-in-law. Who would have thought, it turned out that she was a concubine for someone else. A year after her glorious marriage, I
After he was born, Yu Linghuai stayed in the Ning family for three full years. He won the trust and appreciation of his grandfather, and gradually handed over the Ning family's industry to him to manage. But since then, he has
She rarely stayed at home and often went out. It wasn't until my grandfather fell seriously ill and Yu Linghuai's wife came to visit with her family members that my mother found out that she was a concubine!"
"This is too immoral!" Lan Yang said angrily.
Yu Shi shook her head helplessly and sighed: "This is the pain of my mother's life, and it was also at that time that she learned that the original property of the Ning family had been transferred to his property by Yu Linghuai, except that at that time
The house where they lived with my grandfather has not changed its owner, and the Ning family has nothing."
Ling Zinan closed her eyes and forcibly suppressed the suffocation in her heart, then patted Yu's hand to comfort her.
Su Han curled his lips and said: "So, the Yu family's original property was also obtained through fraud, and then his property was defrauded by Zheng Xishi. Is this retribution?"
"Retribution must be calculated, but it is wrong for the Yu family to want to get back the so-called original property. How much is his original property? Should the original Ning family's property be excluded?" Ling Zinan lightly challenged Su Han.
The way of eyebrow.
"Yes, we have to figure it out carefully. Does sister-in-law know what the original Ning family's properties are?" Su Han asked her with a smile.
Mrs. Yu's eyes suddenly shone and she nodded vigorously: "My mother has records, and I have always kept them carefully."
"That's fine. If you take what we have, bring it back to us. If you eat it, let us spit it out. If he doesn't accept it, we'll beat him until he accepts it. We've agreed on this justice." Su Han patted the table lightly and said proudly.
